One day until we are off!

So after months of planning and preparation, the day has finally come! We are leaving on a jet plane tomorrow at 7pm, bound for Kenya. A 12 hour layover in Paris on Friday after our 7 hour flight should be.. interesting.. to say the least. Then onto Nairobi (another 8 hour flight) where we catch our third, and final, flight to Kitale, where we will be staying for the first 5 weeks of our stay in Africa.

I'm not too sure of what to expect when we get there, I know our first issue is going to be simply trying to get our luggage from the airport to the lodge. With most of my luggage being for the orphanage, and trying to stuff my stuff in around it all, simply lifting my bags could prove problematic. So here's hoping we can get there without any issues!

Since we don't arrive until Saturday around noon Kenya time ( about 5am our time) we will hopefully be meeting up with Dalton in the afternoon, to buy food for the feast we are having *fingers crossed* Sunday afternoon.

We should be able to hit up an internet cafe Saturday evening, and we can let you know exactly how tired we are from our 3 days of travel!
